Faith RinggoldAunt Harriet's Underground Railroad in the Sky

Nice art work.

This book arrived in VERY Good condition; you described it as "Good" but it was better than that. Thank you for the good service, Goodwill Industries of Central Florida! It is a charming story of the Underground Railroad.....

Saw a documentary on PBS about crafts and Faith Ringgold was one of the artist's featured. She talked about her book, Tar Beach, and I knew i had to get it, so I went to the library and checked it out. I enjoyed it thoroughly and resolved to get all of her books. I love how she uses color to fill the entire page. Having had family who lived in NYC, I was familiar with NYC rooftops and wasn't sure my southern grandchildren, who live in the country, would appreciate Tar Beach. So, I'm starting them with her, Aunt Harriet's Underground Railroad in the Sky. I would recommend all of her books.

It is crucial to explain to our kids our past and expose them to the meaning of slavery and what it meant to our communities. This book does a great job doing it in a friendly way and embracing the role of antie Harriet who did an amazing thing that should never be forgotten.

My daughter in law suggested I buy this book for one of her daughters so they could discuss the life of the slaves.

Well written and good history

Excellent story and beautiful artistic pictures! A great book for understanding how the slaves made their way North for freedom

Book was used to introduce The Underground Railroad quilt presentation to 4th graders. They thoroughly enjoyed it.

I was deeply moved by this book and the struggles, and peoples who rose up and atrocities were faced by the people's,and beyond.

I liked the history that it gives. Readers are able to imagine themselves in the story. I loved the illustrations it really shows some important aspects of the Underground Railroad.

Another amazing book written for children but with much to teach adults. I used it in school and have had many copies the latest to give to my grandchildren.

Purchased for my 7 year old granddaughter

Great!
